A fabulous place to spend time in the mountains. The hospitality and service were fantastic. They take the time to buy local products for breakfast and the quality shows. Really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this pension to anyone.

Breakfast was great, the spot is excellent, the village is great, away from the crazy environment of Kousadasi.

This property has been on Booking.com since Mar 12, 2014.

Only a customer who has booked through Booking.com and stayed at the property in question can write a review. This allows us to verify that our reviews come from real guests like you. Who better to tell others about the free breakfast, friendly staff, or their comfortable room than someone who’s stayed at the property?

We want you to share your story, with both the good and the not-so-good. All we ask is that you follow a few simple guidelines.

Tips for writing a great review

Give us details. People love to hear about the little things. Was the air conditioning working? Was there a chocolate on your pillow? We like long reviews, so you should try to write at least 50 words.

Be candid. Give us your honest opinion. We’ll never remove a review just because it’s negative. We promise.

Be relevant. The best reviews provide constructive information that helps other travelers make better choices. Stay on topic and avoid content that others might find offensive.

Sometimes we'll remove reviews if they include any of the following:

Objectionable material. This includes insulting or discriminatory remarks, swearing, or other offensive language.

Private information. To protect your (and others') privacy we do not display reviews that include email addresses or phone numbers.

Sensitive information. We don't display reviews that contain information with possible legal implications. This includes references to suspected illegal conduct or allusions to lost or stolen items. In such sensitive cases, please contact our Customer Service Team, who will be happy to help.

Irrelevant topics. This includes promotional content and politically sensitive subjects.

In some rare cases, neither the written review nor the review score can be displayed. This only happens if:

Key information is missing. A few review questions are mandatory. If these aren’t answered, we aren't able to calculate a fair review score, so we can't display the review.

You didn’t stay at the property. When necessary, we’ll confirm this information with both you and the property owner.

You made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes. We won’t post yours. If you reviewed a different property from the one you booked, let us know. We can fix it so that your review shows with the right property.

The review is a fake. If there's any indication that a review is not authentic or is in any way fraudulent, it will be flagged during the moderation process.

For such a nice and unique Village, surprisingly needs less litter and a good clean up from the locals to start with.

There were no wifi in our room. I would have given this pension a higher score, but the owner has a dog that barks outside the window throughout the night that is very disruptive for sleep.

This pension is very well located in Sirence. It is the cleanest place we stayed in Turkey. We had a very good complimentary breakfast that is provided by a restaurant across the road. The rooms are very small but a very comfortable bed. They have an outside chill area overlooking the town. Very good value for money in a beautiful village.

Although available, parking was difficult. The rooms were a bit small (but it was reasonably comfortable). Although I did not mind it, the road from Sirince to Selcuk is very winding and a bit of a challenge when meeting buses coming from the opposite direction...particularly on curves. On Turkish holidays it is a very crowded little village and driving is very difficult.

It was very charming and the owner/host was extremely accommodating. The breakfast was excellent (actually the best we had during a month in Turkey). It was on a quiet backstreet. When we could not find it (does not show in any useful way when entering the location on Google Maps), the host ("U-gel" a phonetic pronunciation) trotted down to find us in the village, and then carried our bags to the location. The village is charming, but has become quite the tourist destination with many shops and several restaurants. It was quite a bit less expensive than some of the newer lodging choices. No chickens crowing or dogs barking. The A/C worked. Lots of local color photo ops in the town.

The Alaya Pension has only been in business under the present host for under the year. He is doing everything possible to make it a success. He is beginning with a situation right in the heart of the village in a beautiful renovated house. The rooms are clean and bright and there is a lovely patin area with views over the village to relax in.We only had time to stay the night but could have easily settled in for a week or two as the pension and the village are so peaceful and relaxing.

Found this delightful traditional Turkish pension - small (5 rooms), very clean, all en-suite rooms, perfect wifi and a wonderful host who can't do enough for you.
Breakfast can be had at the Artemis Restaurant about 50m away. Has to be the best traditional breakfast we've ever had, and so very cheap and tremendous value for money.
Perfect base for visiting Ephesus and in a lovely situation. Very peaceful village once all the day trip tourists have left for the day.
